  • ivrylineslead, on 11/05/2008, -10/+354Here's to no longer being the laughing stock of the world. Obama not only instills hope in millions of Americans, but in billions of people worldwide. Yes we did!
  • mankyd, on 11/05/2008, -4/+167quite impressive, to say the least
  • Dufresne, on 11/06/2008, -3/+134Unfortunately, there are a lot of pictures in there that are completely random with nothing to do with Obama. Must have been added for fluff.
    See for yourself :(
  • twodollars, on 11/06/2008, -6/+102This is by far, the best one:

  • Trollbane, on 11/06/2008, -4/+97I wonder if Sarah Palin has read them all yet
  • beccax, on 11/06/2008, -0/+52Love how you can click thru to the actual images now. Nice work!
  • slangmann, on 11/07/2008, -1/+45http://www.newseum.org.nyud.net/media/dfp/jpg5/lg/ ...
    EPIC WIN!
  • Zomgondo, on 11/06/2008, -0/+42Wtf? About 1/3rd of the way down, left side: "STAYIN', NOT PLAYIN'" and "BLOOMY WIELDS AXE"... not a single shot of Obama on that one at all.

    But I guess he is stayin', not playin'.
  • kinseyincanada, on 11/06/2008, -5/+47Its obvious that Obama and McCain teamed up and this whole election was a distraction so that they can use the presidents escape tunnel which goes under the Smithsonian museum and steal the hope diamond
  • GenghisRon, on 11/06/2008, -3/+43The Statesman Journal definitely takes the cake
    Headline: Epic Win
  • JK1150, on 11/06/2008, -1/+36What does this have to do with Obama?

  • ShadowFoxxx, on 11/06/2008, -1/+34It seems that America not only chose Obama, but so did the whole world.
  • BBelleau, on 11/06/2008, -7/+34We can finally be proud of our President! What a concept!
  • Jublins, on 11/06/2008, -0/+24"El Punt" is a great newspaper name
  • mewmewkittys, on 11/06/2008, -1/+21"EPIC WIN".
  • domness, on 11/06/2008, -0/+20It does that now :)
  • inactive, on 11/06/2008, -4/+24Help me Obama Won Kenobi, you're my only hope.
  • yikiad, on 11/07/2008, -5/+25let me rephrase your question:

    "I wonder if Sarah Palin has read at all yet."

    There. That's better.
  • uknowwhoibe, on 11/06/2008, -0/+19The Bulgarian paper (first one I clicked on to see), didn't have any mention of Obama.

    Not that I speak Bulgarian, but I assume they'd call him 'Obama'.
  • FirstNight, on 11/05/2008, -1/+17Love it. Would love to see bigger images. Maybe when you click on it, it pops open the page? Great work though! Don't stop now!
  • specialK16, on 11/06/2008, -3/+19And in comes the Bandwidth Usage warning from my IT department.
  • macballer30, on 11/06/2008, -5/+21just as you are a waste of space.
  • MonTheBuds, on 11/06/2008, -0/+16 I hate to dissapoint you but those papers were from Ottowa and Toronto.
  • greenroom628, on 11/06/2008, -0/+15my favorite is from the 'amazonia'. the cover that's about a little lower than half way down and in the middle. there's a small caricature of obama and mccain on the upper right corner, but the front page is dominated by 3 bikini clad women. gotta love brazillians.
  • inactive, on 11/06/2008, -3/+18Wow, that was an original idea... you should be a writer on South Park or something...
  • Brian48216, on 11/06/2008, -4/+19to have a president elect that is leaps and bounds smarter than our last one is a huge improvement in itself. I'd say it's pride worthy.
  • meatpopsicle, on 11/06/2008, -3/+17Now do it for page 3.
  • lisaawesome, on 11/06/2008, -2/+15I'm going to pretend that says mum's pussy sex.
  • grexeo, on 11/06/2008, -0/+13If the UK papers seem a little unenthusiastic it's because they're essentially from the day before he was elected President due to the time difference.
  • scotinus, on 11/06/2008, -3/+16Can I get it as wallpaper?
  • inactive, on 11/07/2008, -0/+13Don't let the door hit your ass when you leave
  • selmer, on 11/07/2008, -0/+12Couldn't agree more. Obama, hot chicks and dudes that look dead. ***** bad ass.
  • ryanhayn, on 11/06/2008, -0/+11I'll make a post and reply to it one minute later!
  • geoffmenegay, on 11/06/2008, -1/+12You got it! Try the page again, and you should be able to click on each image to make it bigger. It might take a little while to load, though, because the images are big.
  • had3l, on 11/07/2008, -0/+11http://www.newseum.org.nyud.net/media/dfp/jpg5/lg/ ...

    This not only has nothing about Obama, but actually says:

    "MAN PUNCHES OWN MOTHER BECAUSE OF HER FOOD"

    Actually, almost half of the Brazilian newspapers shown there have nothing about Obama.
  • svensksvamp, on 11/06/2008, -1/+12don't forget that he made front page on digg like 700 times.
  • TheNik, on 11/06/2008, -3/+14I'm not dead, so I don't get it... douchebag.
  • Ademimana, on 11/06/2008, -5/+16If you look closely one has nothing to do with Obama....

  • IAmTheGuy, on 11/06/2008, -0/+10The New York Daily News had a picture of Stephon Marbury taking about half the front page. He's black so he must be Obama?
  • rednaxela825, on 11/06/2008, -1/+11http://www.newseum.org.nyud.net/media/dfp/jpg5/lg/ ...

    Why?
  • Rivetgeek, on 11/07/2008, -3/+12Whos watch did that happen on again?
  • quomen, on 11/06/2008, -6/+15Ok, I'm an independent with no bias, but how the ***** can we be proud of a President-elect that has yet to do anything? Everyone stood behind G.W. Bush after 9/11. Save your breath and lets put hope not in one man, but in the American People.
  • inactive, on 11/06/2008, -2/+11Does your company share a dial-up connection?
  • foofoobee, on 11/06/2008, -3/+12That's in response to other pre-existing factors (layoffs, continued loan defaults, etc), not the election. This win was not a magic bullet to solve the country's mess before he even takes office.
  • Dronez, on 11/06/2008, -8/+17http://www.newseum.org.nyud.net/media/dfp/jpg5/lg/ ...

  • airwalke, on 11/06/2008, -2/+11Always gotta blame something.
  • AndrewDB, on 11/07/2008, -0/+8It's like playing Where's Waldo for that cover.. but once you find it.. you're amply rewarded unlike those Waldo books.
